Board of
Governors Fee Waiver (BOGW)
NOTICE: due to
the economic downturn and the state budget crisis, the Enrollment Fee
increased to $26 per unit beginning Fall 2009. As of February 2010
there are proposals to increase fees again for 2010-2011 but we
do not have any specific information since an official state budget has not been
passed for next year. Regardless of the amount of any
fee increase, the BOG Waiver will cover the per unit Enrollment Fee if you
apply and are eligible.
To apply on-line for a BOG Waiver
application for Grossmont College, students must now access WebAdvisor and
sign in using their WebAdvisor user id and password.
On-line fee
waiver application
State law requires that students attending California Community Colleges
pay an enrollment fee and a health fee. Students enrolled in credit
classes at Grossmont College are required to pay a $20.00 per unit enrollment fee,
a $14.00 per semester health fee and a maximum of $1.00 per semester Student
Representation fee.
The Board of Governors Fee Waiver Program provides three ways to help low
income students pay fees. The eligibility requirements for each
program are listed below. If applications have not been processed for
the Board of Governors Waiver by the time of registration, fees will be
charged and a refund will be made upon approval of the application.
Please note that refunds are not retroactive to the prior semester. The Board of
Governors Waiver is awarded for up to twelve months: fall, spring and summer
and students need to reapply every fall.
DROP FOR
NON-PAYMENT: students who have a BOG Fee Waiver will not be dropped for
non-payment of fees. However, students should check with the College
Cashier to ensure that they don't owe any miscellaneous fees. It is the
student's responsibility to pay any outstanding balance due that is not
covered by the BOG Fee Waiver.
All three BOG Methods cover the enrollment fee and the parking fee (in
excess of $20.00). The health fee
will only be waived for BOG A & B recipients. BOG C recipients will be
required to pay the $14 health fee. All BOG recipients are still
required to pay for the Student Representation Fee and any miscellaneous
class or library fees.
